The 2024 edition of the Ben Snelling Cancer Classic will be held on October 4th and 5th 2024 at V. E. & Lydia Owens Park, 499 Massenburg-Baker Road, Louisburg, NC. This annual classic, started in 2019 by Kingdom CDC as an avenue for the community to join the fight against cancer, has grown into a major running event in NC. Each October, runners of all ages come out to join the fight and raise funding for The Jimmy V. Foundation for Cancer Research. Ben Snelling, a Raleigh native now living in Franklin County, NC, is an avid NC State fan, a longtime coach and supporter of youth sports, and a 3 time colon cancer survivor. Kingdom CDC is honored to have partnered with Ben Snelling, Franklin County Parks and Recreation, The Jimmy V. Foundation and Carolina Sports Foundation to make the 2024 edition an even more successful event.
